Same here, I've been searching for a video tutorial. If anyone finds anything please let me know. My life will be easier if this process sent an automated email whenever the set date for a reminder is triggered
Thank you for this video! My director asked me today if this feature is possible in Excel. So, let me get busy, and thank you for posting your extremely helpful video!!
Hi Barb. I know nothing about xl but need to set up a table like this to keep track of training dates for staff who do 3 monthly refreshers. How do I even begin to to set this up. The majority of staff will have different dates of when they done the training and when their Refresher is due.
@@BarbHendersonconsulting is it okay if i email you as well? i am an absolute novice and I need a spreadsheet like the one you demo'd up here. Majority of staff in my case also have different dates. Please and thank you
Thanks so much for your assistance on this topic Barb. You went above and beyond to help out my unique issues on this topic. I have happily subscribed to your channels and I will be sending friends, and colleague's your way.
I made this sheet and it works great, but what is the formula for making the cells with no info in them stay white? as I just made a table with all formulas
Good evening, I came across this very instructional video for a project that I want to do, which is tracking expiration dates of student CPR/AED/1st Aid certifications. This looks like it will fit the bill, however, as Augustine Benny asked 1 year ago, is there a way to get email notifications of expiring documents in any of the 'time periods' (30 days, 60 days, etc)?
The only difficulty with that would be making sure that the file was open every day if date =certdate +30 then send email. You could not use less than because they would receive a message everyday.
I want to specify the range date foe nearby due date alert color if possible since green and red work fine but yellow for nearby due date range doesn’t work with me. I would like to communicate with you by video call after your agreement. Thank you for amazing work.
I cant figure out how to keep empty cells white. I have tried surrounding the formula in =ifna(formula,"") and using conditional formatting for all cells equal to "" to be white. Please help!
Just what I was after for all the crew's certs. Is there a way to copy and paste the conditional formatting, so I dont have to enter for each date in manually. I have tried format painter and special paste (format). These don't pickup the same today() cells each time.
Thank you for this video. It has helped greatly, however, I am having one issue today date being 28/10/2022. For some reason any date in january 2023 is not formating. would you know what the issue might be?
Very good Henderson, one question, how can you make a report from each employee name with their expired certification name and expired date or nearly to expire about 30 days.
Thank you for the video. this is what I've been looking for. I do have a problem when coloring the cells. when I go to the manage rules, there is no rules.... the box is blank and I can't add rules in.
Hi Barb, thanks for this, so helpful - how do i expand the conditional formatting through to all the rest of the cells? i have inserted the cell range under "applies to" but those cells' colour does not change for some reason? Screenshot attached
Hi Barb, good content and i do learn from the video. I have a request aka help.. i manage medicine at my place, and it is very troublesome for me to track medicine that is almost expired within 6 months without complete stock check.. i do work alone at my place thus i have time issues in solving everything.. my question is, is there any function to help me in tracking this thus making a list automatically at another sheet or tab of near expired items starting from 6 months? Thanks for any attention given..
Hi, I have a similar data but want to display this in pivot table (non-expired data shouldn't be visible), can we achieve this task in pivot tables for expired dates & nearing expiry dates only.
Hi there, It has been very helpful but for some reason I can't get the yellow 90 days to work for me. If you could please help - I have followed the video but it just goes white (using a MAC)
I cannot reproduce this because I do not have a MAC. If you email me at easyexcelanswers@gmail.com, I can send you my copy and you can see if that works
Hello Barb, I know only basics of Excel. I really want to learn step by step process of creating exactly same file. Please, do it for me if you can. That would be helpful for me and I guess there are lot of others who are exactly like me. Thank you in advance.

Is there any way I can get a copy of this to use for tracking my guys certifications? I run a 5 guy tower climbing crew and this would be excellent for tracking their safety and training certifications, as well as give me heads up as to when they need training review or re certification.

@@BarbHendersonconsulting Ironically enough I manage a tower climbing company and am going through the same process.

The health and safety training certificates validity are usually 12 months, 24 , and 36 months and not less than a year.
The point of the video is to show you the process!

Is there any way you could then link ONLY the expired certificates to show up in a sort of 'summary' worksheet? i.e. your "Sheet2".
You could make a list of all the certificates and their expiry. Then use the formula that I explain in my most recent video
th-cam.com/video/77li3mP4PNg/w-d-xo.html, you would just get a list of the expired certificates

Did you format each cell separately? or is there a way to format them in one go, please ?
You are able to select the range of cells and format them as a group

the colour makes it easy to read
